Today the Independent Commission Against Corruption welcomed the announcement that Mr Ben Broyd has been appointed as Deputy Commissioner by the Governor of South Australia in Executive Council.

Commissioner Townsend said, “Mr Broyd has been an asset to the Commission for nearly three years in his role as Director of Legal and Compliance and held other roles within the Commission prior to that. His evident leadership, his experience as a legal practitioner and his wealth of knowledge about the integrity landscape make him an ideal appointee for the role of Deputy Commissioner.”

Mr Broyd said “I am honoured to take on the role of Deputy Commissioner. I look forward to working with Commissioner Townsend and the staff of the Commission to strengthen integrity in South Australia.”

Mr Broyd was also Acting Commissioner for several months prior to Commissioner Townsend’s commencement in the role in February 2025.
